This package went to Tom in the South of France by DHL in early December. It was processed through the DDP system, (delivery duty paid) so no surprise import tax or VAT when it arrived, having all been done by ourselves before it left.
For the purpose of transportation and keeping the length under 3m this keel band is made with a halving joint 200 mm forward of the rudder housing, take a look on the website for this info.
Tom is going to keep me updated in February when he gets his Mk3 Lugger out of the water and ready to fit his new keel band.
